Cityscapes of Scrap Wood

For his MFA Thesis Exhibit last September, Pennsylvania artist James McNabb created a beautiful collection of architectural wonders using discarded wood. He describes his process as “sketching with a band saw,” and says initial intent was not to build skylines, but instead began with the creation of the individual wooden pieces which resembled tools or other strangely familiar objects. After he built nearly 250 of them in a day they collectively began to resemble a miniature city. You can see many more works from the exhibition on his website.

And one more thing. As you can see, most of this work is made using a band saw, and I’m currently entered to win a shiny new one in this contest: https://www.facebook.com/lagunatools?sk=app_179340312204474. I’m currently in 2nd place, and need more votes. Simply click the link, like the page, and vote for my city wheel. Who could possibly need this band saw more than me? Thanks for voting!
